This project is that of the missile program. The students are the missiles to be projected 

into outer space — the world. 

The administration and faculty serve as the manufacturers and scientists who are respon- 
sible for the preparation and launching of the students (the missiles) — upon graduation 

— in the world — outer space. 

The buildings are the proving grounds. The development is shown by the activities the 




students share and enjoy as they learn and prepare themselves for the world and life. The 
organizations represent the regimentation and association that the students receive and ob- 
tain — the athletic programs help to develop the principles and standards of sportsman- 
ship needed for future success. 

These conditions make the freshman the first stage at launching, the sophomore the second 
stage, the junior the third stage, and the senior and graduate the missiles launched into the 
world of outer space — the world of today and tomorrow

DEDICATION 




DEDICATION 



We, the students and faculty, dedicate this 1958 edition of the 
yearbook, "THOROBRED", to Dr. Alexis J. Richards, for his in- 
terest in education and its continued development here at Ken- 
tucky State College. He has served and is serving as an admin- 
istrator, is one of the founders of the Midwestern Athletic Asso- 
ciation and was secretary and treasurer of the organization for 
an extended period. He is head of the Department of Romance 

Languages and an ardent worker in education. 
Time has demonstrated the worthwhile qualities of his contri- 
butions. The college family and the Commonwealth of Kentucky 
will always be indebted to him. The sincere appreciation of 
these two bodies has moved us to demonstrate and give thanks 
to him for his unyielding efforts and to wish well-earned success 
for a job well done.

OFFICE OF PRESIDENT 



it is pleasing to be associated with a great and growing school. The faculty, the 
curricula, and the range of opportunities offered our students have grown with the 
years. This growth has come through the persistent efforts and spirit of admirers of 
quality education. Students now catch this spirit and upon graduation go out into the 
world dedicated to newer and better lives. Spirit alone will not make a great college, 
but blending learning and academic tradition with spirit it gives an additional value 
to degrees and college honors. May we never lose this spirit and may we never be 
satisfied with past achievements but look determinedly to our day in the future.

Omega Psi Phi Fraternity was founded on November 17, 1911, by Brothers Edgar A. Love, 
Oscar J. Cooper, Frank Coleman, and Ernest E. Just, now deceased. These four men, in the early 
part of the twentieth century, seized upon the cultural heritage of the human race and especially 
upon the heritage of their forefathers, and at their Alma Mater, Howard University, Washington, 
D. C, established the national Greek-letter fraternity, the Omega Psi Phi. In their founding the first 
national Greek-letter fraternity to be organized at a Negro institution of higher learning, the Ome- 
ga Psi Phi Fraternity pioneered and blazed the way for other fraternities that have followed. 

The four cardinal principles upon which Omega Psi Phi is founded are Manhood, Scholarship,

The members of the Thorobred Yearbook Staff of 1958 present this documentary in 
pictures as a record of the activities and accomplishments at Kentucky State College 

this year 

We were challenged by the Student Council and we were happy to accept as it af- 
fected our production of this Annual to some degree. 

Our Editor was called to the Armed Services in the middle of our planning and the 
Associate Editor was appointed to the task of continuing this program. 

Plans were developed to give the Student Body, and especially the Seniors, a book that 
would include the entire school year and many other activities that were not included 

in previous volumes. 

The work developed gradually, the staff change was made, and the members gave 
their untiring efforts and cooperation, with the devoted aid of our Advisor, to make 

the program a success. 



It is hoped that the memories will help you enjoy this Annual as much as we enjoyed 

working and preparing it for you.
